To follow orders blindly & carry out actions which can kill/maim civilians etc, I am sure the soldiers are asking themselves why they do it. But at the end of the day they did choose willingly to join the military, they weren't drafted. There are times to take personal responsibility for ones actions, if you are the one that drops a bomb that might kill some bad guys and some good guys, you are still responsible even if you were ordered to do so. You have the ability to say no, sure you'll be punished but the finger on the trigger is yours.The soldiers weren't the ones to make the decision to go, but they're the final decision on causing death whether for the greater good, accident, or a bad reason."You should be looking at the politicians and crying wolf. You *should* be out talking to people about these things. Taking action. But you don't. You are just as guilty for not doing anything about it here as the soldiers are over in Iraq. The only difference is, the soldier is fighting for his life. What are you doing?"True however you might be labelled a traitor, though what actions can really work? sabotage engines of the machines of war to delay them? Good way to get killed n labelled a traitor/terrorist/againstus. Protests happen all the time, but they don't really seem to do much, the only real thing someone could do is try get into power and go against the grain but this is a very difficult task especially without support from others in power.Hopefully who the people elect will work in the best interests for a country, but short of taking arms again and rising up to defeat the government what can you really do?The blame lies with pretty much every human that stands by and lets bad ***** happen, we're a vicious breed us humans.
